MOTU 828 USED MANUAL
Maybe I should just crack the Ableton manual open to see what it says about this topic. I'm open to any opinions about which sample rates and depths are the best to use. I noticed that Nine Inch Nails offers their new album Slip in HD for download, but haven't noticed anything really that impressive about the definition of sound. I always hear artifacts in the high hats, or frequencies above 8khz.
MOTU 828 USED 320KBPS
But even CD quality audio in WAV format still sounds better than the 320kbps mp3s. I'm sure eventually the data compression will get better and eventually be compressed HD audio. Plus, it seems that the industry has kinda gone backwards with the advent of mpeg. Motu Mark of the Unicorn 828 Firewire 8 Channel Digial Audio Interface PROJECT.
MOTU 828 USED DRIVER
Audio driver for the MOTU 828, 896, 828mk2 and 896HD. Motu 1224, 2408 PCI DAC Motu windows Linux. All I know is that, in the 90's, CD quality worked great for a lot of albums, and since 2000, they've been using HD, but at the same time, squashing the dynamics to avoid bad FM radio compression being used at the stations, and all that "high-definition" is not really being used. The HP Workstation xw6000 does not support the memory modules for the HP Workstation xw4000, which uses a different type of. Rig: AMD 3900x on a x570 asrock creator MB, Motu 828es, Ferrofish pulse 16. Even the HD radio broadcasts are still using CD quality. MOTUs award-winning hardware and software are used by top professionals. As a computer interface, the 828mkII provides 20 separate inputs and 22 outputs, including separate main outs and headphone out. The 828mkII is equally well-suited for studio and stage, with or without a computer. I've always just ran the signal out through external analog gear when down sampling to CD quality. Expand your system by connecting additional 828 or 896 FireWire audio interfaces. I've never been one to use dithering either when down-sampling. I've always believed if you record things properly from the beginning, and stay within the "box" you will always achieve a clear sound. I know that lower bit depths and sample rates will not sound as good after pitch/time shifting which i know is important for ableton users, but I'm hoping this loss compensates for better performance. Will there be a loss in volume? How will Live handle having samples at different bit depths in the same project? I understand that conflicting formats can sometimes cause audio interfaces to crash or behave erratically. How will this affect my work flow in Ableton? How would I go about this properly, especially since the 828 converters work at 24bit, and as far as I know, setting Ableton's projects to 16bit will not change the bit depth in the 828. And two, all of my external gear and sample libraries are 16bit 44.1khz.īut I plan on recording all vocals and instruments from a microphone at 24bit to avoid using mild gain from a compressor for a hotter signal like when recording in 16bit. One, because I'm looking for the best CPU performance and storage space while getting the lowest latency possible. I plan on working in 16bit 44.1 khz CD quality. I'm in the market for one because of it's price, it's i/o's and excellent track record.īut I have a few questions about bit depths. I can't thank you enough for testing it out and comparing the sound quality.
